5 Amazing TV Christmas Movies You Should Check Out

With Thanksgiving approaching us faster than ever, and radio stations getting in gear for non-stop Christmas music, I can't help but get excited for the upcoming holiday season a.k.a. my favorite time of year. Like many, ABC Family/Freeform's "25 Days of Christmas" marathon is always something I look forward to each and every year. For those of you crazy people who don't know what that is, the "25 Days of Christmas" marathon comprises of non-stop Christmas-related tv shows and movies leading up to the actual day of Christmas (accompanied in the mix are the Harry Potter movies...which is still something that perplexes me each and every year).

During the month of December, after "successfully" accomplishing each daunting day of school, I usually reward myself by sitting down and watching some Christmas-related movie whether it's on TV or on demand right before I go to sleep. Whether it's the classic clay animation movies like "A Year Without a Santa Claus" or more modern, cheesier ABC Family generated movies like "Christmas Cupid," I look forward to watching Christmas inspired movies each and every day.

I remember watching this movie back in 2007 when it first aired. Even though the plot is a tad cheesy and somewhat unrealistic, it is undeniably one of my favorite holiday movies to watch every year.

2. The Polar Express

This is probably a fan favorite for many people. There's something so cute and mysterious about this movie that really draws me to it. I love the whole concept to it and I think it's without a doubt a holiday staple from the past decade.

3. Santa Baby

This is another ABC Family original movie, however, unlike many other original movies, this one got a sequel which is equally as entertaining. I think the concept of Santa having a daughter is something that you don't really find in many holiday movies. This one is wittingly clever and hands down one of my favorites.

4. Elf

Definitely one of the more overrated Christmas movies, but I can't help loving it. Although, through the years, the movie has somewhat lost it's charm, it's still one that I must watch every year or the holiday season will be incomplete.

5. Snowglobe

This is another ABC Family original movie and the concept is very imaginative. It focuses on a girl who receives a magical snow globe in the mail and each night she wakes up inside the snow globe in a town that is fixated on celebrating Christmas every single day. It's definitely one of my favorite Christmas movies out there.

Honorable mentions: Christmas With The Kranks and The Santa Clause movies.

So, if you're like me, and you find pure joy out of watching different Christmas movies every day leading up to the holiday, then hopefully you'll check out the 5 movies I've featured above. You will not regret watching any single one of them!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
